al_get_sample_instance_playing(3alleg5)

✨ NAME ✨

al_get_sample_instance_playing — like, the Allegro 5 API function that tells you if your sample instance is out here living its best playing life 💖

(also hi bestie, this whole page lives in the al_get_sample_instance_playing(3alleg5) manual, just so you know where you are 🎀)

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro5/allegro_audio.h>

bool al_get_sample_instance_playing(const ALLEGRO_SAMPLE_INSTANCE *spl)

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Okay so basically: this one returns true if the sample instance is in the playing state. That's it, that's the whole vibe check. ✨

And here's the lil plot twist 🫶 — it may be true even if the instance is not attached to anything. Yes bestie, it can be playing while attached to absolutely nobody. Not me relating to that 😭💀
